I find myself feeling the clearest after talking out loud about something (or even typing a lot about it on LJ, etc.), sometimes figuring out really big things only after saying them out loud and then going, "wow... it just all fit together." Jim's gotten really good at knowing when I'm sorting something out out loud and listening/nodding/interjecting as I work through it through talking. Talking helps too. :) Or I wouldn't have a profession, eep! I glad you said "almost always" instead of that he always says that, because I've seen you light up and figure things out during our more in-depth talks, so I think that's important for you too.
